Cheryl creates beautiful handmade hair accessories for little people. I have ordered the school pack $20, headband and clip pack ($8 I think) and was very happy with the quality! You can usually order in any colour / combination and she will make it to your needs. Good turnaround on orders and fabulous prices.

I had been looking for an autograph album and had been to every store in Chermside, then I found Kikki K. This was the only store where the shop assistant said "well we don't have one of those, but you could perhaps consider ....." and showed me how we could use something slightly different that would serve the same purpose. It suited what we needed perfectly, the price was good and the item was very nicely presented. Extremely impressed with the level of customer service we received and will definitely go there in the future when we need something a little bit different.

Approximate cost: $35

I've had a few separate items framed here, and my most recent one was ready 5 days earlier than promised, so I was very happy about that! The staff are really helpful with ideas on frames and mat colours and are happy to show you other options when you're not sure exactly what you want. Will definitely be using them again.

Approximate cost: $185

Really like this little Indian restaurant. Nice that they do mild, medium or hot in all of their curries so we, can accommodate all of the family. Son loves the meat samosas and hubby the onion bahji. Service is very good, food arrives fairly quickly and I like,the window where my son can watch them cooking.

I really like this Hungry Jacks. Have never eaten in, only had drive through, but their service is amazing and polite, especially when you compare them to the Strathpine store. Food arrives in good time and is always hot.

Approximate cost: $7.00

Have always had good quality meat from here and the staff are always very friendly. I buy in bulk and often clear out trays that in their display and it's never a problem, they even go out the back to check if there are other things i want sometimes and not all butchers will do that.

I like Lai Lai as their food is always good, pretty quick to come (when you use take away) and the girls who serve are very friendly. They even remembered my son after a number of years. Restaurant area isn't too flash, but if I wanted something fancy I'd go to Chinatown.

I needed an emergency appointment for my son and the soonest my usual dentist could give me was two weeks time! These guys managed to get him in same day and they were just lovely. They even gave us a follow up phone call the next day to check everything was ok. Just a shame they weren't a preferred provider for my health care fund at the time.

The staff are all lovely and they always give my dogs a cuddle and pat when they are there. When they had to cancel my appointment once because of some emergencies not only did they apologize but they gave me free dog washes to say sorry. That is terrific customer service!

I have been going to Rebhorne and seeing Troy for a few years now and he's the first hairdresser I've been comfortable with saying "go for it" and I've never been disappointed. The massage chairs are great when you are having your hair washed. Absolutely worth it.
